Seph’s POV:His fingertips grazed the back of my neck and I wanted to melt right in front of him. Suddenly his hands held onto the chain of my necklace.His movements stopped and I opened my eyes to see what was the reason behind it. His face that a few moments ago of full of mischief and love had now turned cold.“Hades wha-” I had not even completed my question when he pulled the necklace from the front of my dress. He was vicious in doing this. The necklace came into view and he clasped it into his hand.His features started contorting with extreme anger.“How dare you?”I could not understand even a single thing. What was he talking about? He pulled the necklace with such force that I started feeling suffocated.It was intentional. “What sort of audacity is this? How dare you steal something that belonged to her?”He unclasped it from my neck brutally. I know this must have left marks on my neck.“Hades this belongs-” he slapped me and I fell to the carpeted floor. His hands gripp

Morning came but no pleasure came to me. Hades did not come after me nor did he send someone to check upon me.It was 5 am. I wanted to get cold this time. It has been ages since I had gone for a morning walk and even got the chance to be outside at this hour.I know there is a large garden outside. I grabbed the first shawl my eyes landed onto and went towards the exit.Security was there this time also but I found a place where no one could see me. I want to feel something different than hate and sorrow.I want nature to soothe me this time.Dew drops had already fallen and now they gave the green grass a fresh look.I closed my eyes and let the memories resurface. In my childhood many a time I had woken up and accompanied my father on a morning walk to the park.He would greet the neighbors that had also left the home with the same intentions. He would then start a short tread and when I was unable to put up with him, I would always cry for him to slow down.He would ruffle my hair

Seph’s POV“do you even know what you are saying?” I pulled him by his collar. “I have his child inside of me. why would you want a woman like me?”“You have Ayla even though she is not your real daughter. I think you would understand. It is never about the blood but loyalty and love”He cupped my face. “No matter what you do to push me away. I will pull myself closer to you”I took a step back and took my head in my hands.A few hours ago was I not the one who confessed I had somehow fallen in love with Hades? Do I only need a few words of affectation to fall in love? Is it so easy to win me over?I do not know. I do not even know what I want now.“Seph just have faith in me”“I believe you Pavlos. There was never even a moment when I suspected your intentions”“Poios eínai ekeí” a stern voice called over. I quickly pushed Pavlos. (Who’s there?)“Get out before they see you. Go”“I will come for you. Just wait”The other voice was coming nearer. “Okay”“Promise me that you will not g

Two days have passed and Hades has not made even a single contact. I spend my days roaming in this mansion. I am not allowed to go out but I have met Pavlos two to three times.Hades has given him a job. He did not give me the details but I could see him and I was glad to see that his bruises are healing.I could see him daily. He is a very different kind of human. He smiles but it seems that he is sad inside. I always get this feeling when I am near him.What can I say to a man who had a respectable job and got himself into this trouble because of me? Now he is continuously in the line of danger.Ayla goes to school and so does Flora. I am alone in the morning and I do not think Roxanne wants to have any kind of contact with me.She hardly leaves her room. Maids take everything up to her. Her brother comes often but I do not have any reason to talk to him.I just want Hades to come back. I will ask him for forgiveness even when I know I have not made a single mistake. I will do this.

She tried to make herself comfortable on the couch while occasionally taking small gulps from the bottle. We all want the good thing to last forever but it never does.At her part of life, it’s a shame she has not learned that lesson.“So what do you want to know”“Tell me about my parents”She choked on her next gulp. “Way too straight forward.” She coughed again to clear her throat. She looked at me to see whether I was telling a lie but the serous look on my face must have given her the answer.“What about them? Twenty years are enough to live with a person and get to know them”“Yet people die without even knowing themselves even though they had spent lives inside themselves.” This time she did not look up at me but just said “fair enough”“But promise me I want the truth”“I do not make promises anymore. Look where promises have landed me. You just have to listen and decide whether to believe or not”I nodded.“Were you friends with them?”“Forever,” she said looking into a parti

What the hell have I done?How will I be able to justify myself? I did not even do anything. I just touched her and she lost it. It all happened too fast.Hades have to believe me. it could all be a game of his aunt.Yes. I will tell Hades that she was the one who lured me into the trap. She came and then made me do all this. Otherwise, I would have never approached her.I brushed my teeth to get rid of the smell and acrid taste and then paced in the room. My anxiety was not allowing me to stay still. He is already angry with me.Oh God!Will he believe what I say? What happens if he gives me divorce? What will become of this child? He will never let him stay with me. My future will once again become uncertain. On the top of that he will not let me live in peace.He will destroy me.Ayla.The love he has shown her will vanish. She is not his child why would he keep looking after her and shower her with wealth.What about her future? Will I lose everything?The door burst open and I g

The doctor kept on standing and at last when she was tired of me not answering her questions, she huffed a sigh and asked someone to carry her case downstairs.I have finally come to a resolution. If Hades had loved me even for a moment, he would have tried to give me a chance. Above all, he would have stood by me.I muffled my cries with my hand. This is not what he had claimed. When he announced that we will get engaged he told me that I was his obsession and passion.Was his obsession only for the time I was not with him? He carried that obsession for more than five years; did it not evolve into love?His sweet words all for nothing? It was all to make me fall in love and then leave me at a crossroads.Now I know what he meant to do. It was all his plan. He knew that at this point in my life, I wanted to stop and give in. He played with me.Oh God! How could I have been this much stupid? I have ruined this life for myself. Just for a man who had looked at me with only lust.“Seph”

Suddenly the door opened and before we even got the chance to separate the intruder passed us a glare. I would have lost the life in me if it was not for the face of the child that I hold dear.That I know will never be on the side opposite to me.“Mama”“Come in Ayla and close the door. quickly”I donot know why she did not do the thing I had told her but also the fact that she remained rooted on the space she had occupied since she had entered.I quickly got up and closed the door. “Ayla come inside”“mama” she held onto my gown.“What happened Ayla?”“Mama why are you with him?”“What are you talking about?”“Mama he is a bad man. You were hurt because of him”I looked at Pavlos apologetically. “I am sorry Pavlos. She is just a kid”He walked to me. “That is fine seph. I will see you soon with the plan” he said and gave me a hug.“Donot touch my mama” Ayla said angrily.What has gotten into her? “Ayla behave yourself”“Mama-” but I cut her off with a glare. She is being out of line

Two days have passed since the night I saw the dream. I had been quite since that dau and PAvlos had noticed this. He had asked me the reason but I told him there was none. I was waiting anxiously. Mark must have also uploaded the video.It was around five when I left the bed because I had to throw up. I had left my pills back there in the mansion. I could sense the headache coming, and I rubbed my forehead, willing it to go away.There was no use of laying down and trying to sleep knowing it wouldn’t come. I made coffee and stood in the kitchen looking outside.The road was empty as expected. I think I have developed a habit of getting up and staring outside. How many times has this happened?Each time I was looking at life through a new window, each time a new perspective. But every time with wondering about the complexities of life.There was a time when I was scared to look outside in that foreign country. Then Hades came keeping me out of that and forcefully pushing me into his.

We had dinner and then we went to sleep. I loved the guy. Mark. He invited me to his home but I refused because I thought it would make his family get involved also. He assured me that it was not a problem but still I politely declined.I closed my eyes and willed the peaceful sleep to come. A soft piano tone fell on my ears. I have heard this various times before.It was dark all around and then I found myself in the Decardo mansion. The tune was all around me engulfing me in a beautiful trance.I looked all around madly. I wanted to be immersed in it. Music like that I have a beard before. I had listened to it in another dream of mine.“Come here” Someone called and I felt the voice all around me.I had listened to this voice various times now. It is too familiar now. It was not before. I followed the voice and searched for the person in every corner.It was as if the walls were singing and dancing. Such was the effect.Then I felt that I was coming from upstairs. I climbed the stai

Pavlos said it is better than the friend that will be helping me come here. The doorbell rang and Hades came inside with a middle-aged man. He was big but not the intimidating type.“Seph this is Mark, Mark Seph” he introduced me to Mark.I shook his hand. “It is nice to meet you” before I could say anything Pablos said “We will say this in return if you help us to get our work done”“I will try my level best,” Mark said.I hope so. Because if doesn’t work out I do not know what other way will I choose.“Do you have an empty room here? I need to set up the camera”“Yes, this way” Pavlos guided him to the room in the basement l. I followed him. It was quite large but empty. A white sheet was draped on one wall.“It has been used for such purposes before” mark commented looking at Pavlos.“Yes and No”He set up the camera took out his equipment and Pavlos bought a stool from upstairs. He set up his laptop on a table that was the only piece of furniture in the room.“he has told me your

Pavlos took us to another car and then got inside it with us. “Mama, where are we going?”Ayla asked me. “I will explain everything to you Ayla do not worry”“You are not hurt?”“No baby I am not” I kissed her forehead. My sweet angel got so much worried. But if things will go right this will be the last time, she will see me worried. Pavlos drove the car and took us to a house. There were many houses around. It was not a secluded place.I was glad otherwise I would have been scared. “Come out seph” I did as he told me. He took me inside a house. This house belongs to my friend. I did not take you to my house otherwise they would have located you easily.“Where is your friend?” I asked because there was no one inside. I hope he leaves me with someone good.“He died a long time ago”“I am sorry” I said.“No. He was actually a friend of my father. He never married and had no children of course so he left it to me. He was my Godfather”“I am so sorry” I said again. The people that lov

He went his way and I turned towards the other way to go and search for Ayla. We have lost whatever we had in the last few weeks. We are strangers to each other again.I dnot think he love dme for even a single second . It was all me that thought he had the guts to provide a woman will all the love and cherishment.What can a person do? Survival with this kind of man is impossible. People must have always listened to the story of Billionaire Maximilian Decardo marrying college crush but it is only a few know what was the reason behind.It is such a humiliating and horrific truth. How could one know what was behind the smiles and their actions. Hera was never loved noe was Lara. It also passed onto the next generation. Hades hates his father and so does Caludia.Wht did they even got in the end. cOntempt breeds contempt. Love breeds love. This is it.I asked the gardener and he told me that the playing was on the other side.I followed the directions he gave me. I came across the most

“He kidnapped seph because I did not respond to this threat before,” Hades said.What? This is why I was kidnapped. Hades blamed me because of me Alex was taken. He made me feel so bad that because of me that boy was also taken.It means if I had not run that day this man had found another way to take me. fuck! I fisted my hand because otherwise, I will scream. I will scream so loud that their cores will be shaken.I promise you hades I will do you irreparable damage. I will do it and then I will see you cry. I will laugh after seeing your tears. That day I will feel contended to the core.“If you need help, I am here” Caludia offered. “I know” Hades answered. What kind of help can caludia offer? Is she mafia and fires guns like her brother? I want to laugh but I refused to show any emotion.“Flora you must be thinking that's why I called you in this matter.”“Yes Adelfos”“You have grown up. You should also know what is happening but the main thing was to make you stay alert. Do not

I did not look at him instead I kept looking to the front. I have nothing more to say to him and nothing to search for in his eyes. A few days ago, these were he eyes that I wished I would always find familiarity. Now I do not want to even take a glance in them because I will only see the torture his family has been doing to us.Lara and Thanos took their seats and then Caludia came. The breakfast was served. Ayla is not here. Did she even take it. I slightly turned to Flora to ask but she instantly squeezed my hand.“Adelfos asked the children to not come. Alex and flora will have together”I nodded.Hades montioned the amids to leave and now only his family was left. “Where is your fiancé?” he asked caludia. Surely, she was not expecting this because she choked on her water.“What?”“I am asking about your fiancé” Hades said each word clearly as if talking to a child. It was to embarrass her. I want to feel bad for her because she had a trouble childhood but I will not give sympathy

I am left speechless at the betrayal my family has also done to me. I had the right to know about everything. After Hades forcefully asked me to marry him and created a ruckus at my home my father should have told me right there.I am a sinner. How could I fall n the trap of these snakes who suffocated life for us? I was adamant that I would never have a relationship with Hades because he was wronged by my family now when I know how much things are escalated How can I live with him?Sometimes life takes you to places you have never thought about and when I look back on my life it seems that mine has been unpredictable from the very start.How could they know what it is like being the victim? My father was the victim yet in all those years he kept it inside his heart. His life was destroyed. He carried the shreds in his heart. His eyes cried yet he never told me that we have been at the receiving end of these cruelties.They say forgetting is the best revenge but I know my father never

Seph’s POV“Caludia wait”She stopped and raised her eyebrow in question. “You know I did not do anything”“I know Seph. But my knowing would do you no good. In the end, the weak suffer just like your parents”Yes, this is what I am afraid of. Hades will ask for proof. Roxanne will never tell me that she was the one who tricked me and set up all of that.I know my parents suffered because of this family but I have to know what exactly happened. I am sick of staying in the dark.I went to her and clasped her hands. “I do not know what is happening to me. Caludia if you know anything that is hidden from me. I am begging you please tell me. I want to know what happened to the. What was their relationship with your family?”She looked at me for a moment then her face became sad. “I understand you seph” she gave my hands a small squeeze.“Come with me. We can talk in my room. I do not want anyone to eavesdrop.”I followed her because I don’t know what to do now. She closed the door behind
